Diablo 4: Where to Put Aspect of Ancestral Charge - A Barbarian's Dilemma


Highlights

  • Maxrolls Hota/charge build recommends using Edgemaster and Ancestral Charge for two-handed weapons, providing a powerful boost to both Hota and Charge.
  • Prioritizing Juggernaut over Disobedience on the chest is suggested for a consistent and insane boost in damage.
  • Experimenting with different amulets like Molted Heart instead of Banished Lord's Talisman can greatly increase survivability and damage for the Charge/Hota barb.

Alright, let's break down the possible solutions to the question of where to put the offensive aspects for a Charge/Hota barb in Diablo 4.

First up, we have the player who followed Maxrolls Hota/charge hota focus version. They swear by using Edgemaster and Ancestral Charge for two-handed weapons, as it provides a boost to both Hota and Charge. For one-handed weapons and gloves, they recommend Ancestral Force, Brawlers, and Earthstrikers. They even got lucky and found a Grandfather drop, allowing them to move Ancestral Charge to the one-handed weapon. This player believes that you can't go wrong with this setup, as it worked wonders for them.

Next, we have a player who suggests prioritizing Juggernaut over Disobedience on the chest. They argue that Juggernaut is always up and provides an insane boost, while Disobedience only works if you're applying Bleed or another Damage over Time effect. So, if you're looking for a consistent and powerful boost, go for Juggernaut.

Another player stumbled upon a different build for the barb in season 3. They found a video guide that recommended using Molted Heart instead of Banished Lord's Talisman for the amulet, which greatly increased their survivability and damage. They also opted for the defensive tips in the guide and were happy with the results. However, they're still on the lookout for the elusive Ring of Red Furor.

Lastly, we have a player who is curious about the absence of Ring of Red Furor in the Hota/Charge variant on Maxroll. They mention that the non-hybrid build and the bossing build both use it, so why not the Hota-focused one? They speculate that Bear Clan Berserker's might not be necessary for the Hota-focused build, especially if you take extra ranks of Charge somewhere. They also note that Power Charge keeps the cooldown of Bear Clan Berserker's minimal, and you don't necessarily need infinite Charge. However, they acknowledge that the players who have tested and theory-crafted these builds know better than they do.

So there you have it, a range of solutions to consider for placing the offensive aspects on your Charge/Hota barb. Whether you follow Maxrolls, try out different amulets, prioritize Juggernaut, or experiment with the absence of Ring of Red Furor, the choice is yours. Remember, Diablo 4 is all about finding the build that suits your playstyle and unleashing your fury upon the hordes of demons. Happy hunting, fellow barbs!
